Rovers won promotion into League Two after a 5-3 penalty shoot-out victory over Grimsby in the play-off final and Sinclair, who missed the game through injury, admitted to mixed emotions on the day.

"It was heartbreaking to sit there and miss it but I was buzzing we won and got promoted into the league," he said.

"It was very difficult, even at the top level there is not that many people who have played at Wembley. I love all the lads, it was a tough day but I would never change it. It's what all the hard work was about.

Bristol Rovers' penalty shoot-out win over Grimsby made them the first side to go back up to League Two at the first time of asking since 2005

"It was a little tense, my heart was doing somersaults. It's the best workout I've had in ages. I'm not going to lie, I'm not the best at penalties."
